Report by Ben Armstrong for November 2020

Achievements in Last Period

  • Supplier demos completed
  • Initial evaluation of demos completed

Issues

  • WIS Submission requires re-plan of project; email sent to Alex Carter (WIS representative) for clarification and awaiting reply.  As a result, the Planning milestone needs to be revised, as do the evaluation milestones, so the Time RAG has been marked as AMBER this month
  • Project has now engaged with ITC; they confirmed 'as we are replacing an existing central service you do not need ITC's approval' and can inform them of procurement outcome retrospectively

Next Steps

  • Resubmit brief to WIS for approval after feedback
  • Review meeting with Procurement and wider Project Team - including InfoSec and Accessibility team - to confirm recommendation/decision on chosen supplier
  • Prepare recommendation document for sign-off
  • Notify bidders of outcome
  • Start work on contract negotiation with winning supplier
  • Start DPIA/EqIA.
